I've yet to try this range from Muntons but do enjoy their "handcrafted" kits. Looks like a perfect kit for Spring and Summer. Interesting how people are comparing them to all-grain!

Although this kit costs more than double the amount you paid on the cheaper Cooper's kit, the theory is that you get a higher quality brew. As you get habituated into the brewing process, you start to question if brewing from all grains is more economical. I've never added dry hops but saw dry hopper apparatus for ease of removal from the fermenter/keg. My understanding about dry hopping is that this adds aromatic hoppy oils to the beer without effecting the IBU. I saw that people tend to use a more heavy amount of hops for aromatic than for bittering. This made me think that maybe aromatic hopping is only worthwhile it if you are not bothered about it costing more expensive. I also saw some dogma claiming that taste can actually be perceived in the nose by smells, even though it is not tastebuds which is what they teach in schools.

Just discovered your channel...really enjoying it👍

Dont know what you did but this would be the best kit on the Market and looking at several other brew videos they have said the same thing, but as they say each to their own, i would give this kit 10/10 and well worth the money

good video

I tried a few of these kits and came to the same conclusion. I could do better with the can kit plus extras. As of today ( 10/14/22) it costs me 66$ cad or £42 for a kit :(

I'm sure in time it will mellow out :) One question, when you did the 1st dry hop addition did you leave the hops in until you kegged or did you bag them and take them out after 2 or 3 days ??

Cool vid, what is the best beer you have brewed from a Kitt? Cheers

I really like your videos. I know you don't rate this Muntons Hazy IPA that highly but what are the kits you have enjoyed and would recommend?

I tend to find things seldom live up to the hype! So not as good as an AG brew then? Have you checked out Geterbrewed? They have just released a range of own brand premium kits. Well worth a punt.

I've just bottled the same kit, came out just like yours and I'm a little disappointed, not hating on it but a tad too bitter and i got better tropical notes using cascade and mosaic together in a wilko kit added on day 7. Agree on the mouthfeel though, it's smooth to the end and quite strong. Would i brew it again?? In all honesty I want to love this beer as i really like hazy ipa but it just doesn't quite fit with me so i think not and will prob just pimp the hell outta some cheaper kits. Just as an aside I'm quite into mangrove jacks kits atm, have you tried any of them?

Thanks. I have tried the American Amber and the West Coast IPA. Not impressed , there are cheaper and better kits.

just as well since you can't get it Canada

I had to delete my you tube account because Im an idiot and changed my name and couldnt figure out how to change it back ( I know now!) I commented on this video and you referred to a previous video on how you had same or better results can you remember what that was, I know Im eejit😅 thanks

not even close to being hazy.More on the lines of a pale ale
